But few interments have been made in the old burial ground since 1832…. and the members of the East Baltimore and Caroline stations … have finally agreed to remove the remains from the present graveyard. In accomplishment of which the trustees of the two stations have determined to excavate the entire lot to the depth of four feet and a half, having notified all who have friends or relatives buried there to come forward and identify them; and all such should be provided with graves in the Mt. Carmel Cemetery, or in case parties owned lots in other cemeteries the remains should be carefully removed under their direction.”
